Create the Fire

A shock of heat Bleeds me blind A current electrified Leaves me lined I can't run from this place Or escape from this wire A thousand volts charge And you create the fire A focal flame That sears me inside A blaze is to blame For my ultimate demise Try to breathe while I burn And devoured I conspire Just to control the flow As you ignite the fire Finger the flare Or kindle the light An energy is born And is set in flight Engulfed by the spark Scorched by your desire I grab hold of the embers And explode in the fire
